Equipment

  • Food processor

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup dandelion petals

Instructions

  • Gently wash dandelions and leave on a towel-lined sheet to dry.
  • Once dry, remove dandelion petals from their base. You can do this by holding the green base of the flower and twisting, or you can use a knife to cut the petals off.
  • Add sugar and dandelion petals to a food processor and blend until thoroughly mixed.
  • Pour dandelion sugar onto a baking sheet and bake on the lowest setting of your oven (around 170° F) until dry, about 20-30 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
  • To break up any clumps, you can pour the dried sugar back into the food processor (cleaned and thoroughly dried). Pulse a few times until clumps are broken down and sugar has a fairly even consistency.
